brake question

i have a 88 rs camaro. i got my brakes done last month and was hearing a rattling b4 that on my tire. the guy at the shop said i need a new bushing on the caliper but i cannot find anything about brake caliper bushings on autozone.com. i dont know maybe i just missed it or maybe it goes by another name. any help to push me in the right direction is helpful.

damn i wish i didnt forget my haynes manual at my buddy's house

Re: brake question

What the mechanic meant was your caliper slide bushings. You should be able to purchase a caliper hardware kit at any parts store. It will come with bushings and o-rings. Be sure to install the new o-rings to eliminate the rattling.

Re: brake question

Hey whats up , the part that you need is a front disk brake hardware kit . It includes the metal bushings and the rubber that goes between the bushing and the actual caliper. This makes it fit snug. I am in the process of doing this on my 88 trans am. I ran across your thread as I was trying to find directions on how to install them correctly. I will give you the part number in a minute.
